Dear Parents,

We are excited to announce that our annual Harmony DC Science Fair will take place on December 17, 2025. All students in Kindergarten through 5th Grade is expected to work on a science fair project, prepare a presentation board, and present their project to their peers, teachers, and judges.

All students in Kindergarten through 5th Grade received two packages yesterday. If they were absent yesterday, they will receive theirs on Monday.

The first package is Family Guide. You will see the dates, timelines, assignments, and a sample project in this guide. This guide will help you assist your child with their science fair project.

The second package is Science Fair Journal. This resource will help students complete their science fair project step by step with the deadlines. Students should write their notes, findings, resources, and etc in this journal, and use this journal to prepare their presentation board when they complete their project.

There will be three parent information sessions. In these sessions, we will go through the whole science fair process with you and answer your questions.

Please join one of these sessions to learn more about the science fair.

Dear Harmony DC Families,

We appreciate all our families who participate in our aftercare program and understand how important this service is to our community. Our team has worked hard to accommodate as many students as possible; however, due to limited staff and space, we currently have a waitlist for aftercare.
Please note the following important reminders and updates:
Pickup Time: All students must be picked up no later than 5:45 p.m.

Building Closure: The school building will close promptly at 6:00 p.m.

Late Pickup Fees:
A $10 fee per child will be charged for pickups after 6:00 p.m.
This fee will double after 6:15 p.m.
Fees will be added to your account and must be paid by the following week’s deadline.

Repeated Late Pickups:
After two late pickups, continued participation in the aftercare program will result in dismissal.

Any pickup after 6:30 p.m. will result in immediate dismissal from the program.

Please remember that our aftercare staff cannot and will not stay after 6:00 p.m. We kindly ask for your cooperation and respect for their time, as they also have family and personal obligations after work hours.

We appreciate your understanding and partnership in keeping our program running smoothly and safely for all students.
Warm regasrds
